Excel is the greatest _if_ the mailing list is being built internally but if
the list is developed from an on line opt-in form, sometimes you need to be
able to pull that data into something printable.
CSS, combined with ColdFusion templates does a great job at this sort of
thing. If the lists weren't confidential, I would direct you to one of the
two sites I have where this is done. Maybe I can post some sample code
later.
